Highlights: - - * Supports the entire Haskell 2010 language plus a wide variety of - extensions. - * Has particularly good support for concurrency and parallelism, including - support for Software Transactional Memory (STM). - * Generates fast code, particularly for concurrent programs. - * Works on several platforms including FreeBSD, Windows, Mac, Linux, most - varieties of Unix, and several different processor architectures. - * Has extensive optimisation capabilities, including inter-module optimisation. - * Compiles Haskell code either directly to native code or using LLVM as a - back-end. It can also generate C code as an intermediate target for porting - to new platforms. The interactive environment compiles Haskell to bytecode, - and supports execution of mixed bytecode/compiled programs. - * Profiling is supported, both by time/allocation and various kinds of heap - profiling. - * Comes with several libraries, and thousands more are available on Hackage. - -WWW: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ |
